Highly acclaimed multi-sensory series DARKFIELD will make its anticipated return to Sydney this November, bringing all four of its shipping container experiences.
The season sees the return of ’Seance’ and ‘Flight’, with the Sydney debuts of ‘Coma’ and ‘Eulogy’.
DARKFIELD enjoyed a record-breaking season earlier this year – a season which welcomed more than 32,000 Sydneysiders. DARKFIELD is produced in Australia, by Realscape Productions. It will return to Sydney, set to push the boundaries of technology and theatre at Harbour Park in Barangaroo.
“After Sydney became the largest DARKFIELD season on record earlier this year to date, we knew we had to bring more containers as soon as possible,” Realscape Productions Producer Amy Johnson says.
“We can’t wait to see the reactions of Sydney audiences as they experience ‘Coma’ and ‘Eulogy’ for the first time. And after their sell-out seasons in April, it only made sense for us to bring back ‘Seance’ and ‘Flight’ for those who missed out.”

DARKFIELD’s experiences take place inside shipping containers, where strange and mysterious worlds unfold. The immersive, 360-degree audio experiences challenge the senses, exploring the depths of human psychology and perception.
Sydney audiences will be experiencing ‘Coma’ for the first time: “Imagine the moment of waking is actually when your dream begins. How can we save you from the unspeakable things that lurk in the dark recesses of your mind? The cure we offer is a placebo and a promise. Please remember to take your body with you when you leave.”
‘Eulogy’ will also be a new experience for Sydney-siders: “Welcome to DARKFIELD, a dreamlike, labyrinthine hotel that is imagined in the darkness. Using speech recognition technology, guests are transported through rooms and down corridors on an intense and exhilarating journey. ‘Eulogy’ is a deeper exploration of the relative merits of an embodied human conscious experience, versus one that only exists in the imagination.”
Tickets for all four experiences are on sale now.
DARKFIELD is on at Harbour Park (Sydney) from 23 November-21 January.
